On this episode of the Mike Drop Podcast, Mike Ritland hosts Alan Shebaro, a former Green Beret sniper, 5th-degree jiu-jitsu black belt, and We Defy Foundation founder, supporting veterans with jiu-jitsu scholarships. Alan opens with a fiery take, branding Israel a "terrorist state" for displacing Palestinians and dismissing the "unprovoked" October attack narrative as a cover for decades of occupation. He challenges theological land claims, arguing ancient entitlements don't justify modern evictions, reflecting on both sides' fierce convictions. Alan shares his journey from a military brat in Europe and the Middle East to enlisting post-9/11, surviving the grueling SF Q-course, and enduring three intense Iraq deployments. His initial pride in "liberating the oppressed" soured as he questioned the trillions spent and lives lost for little gain, paralleling his critique of colonial conflicts like Israel-Palestine. Now in Vietnam, he's the top-ranked jiu-jitsu practitioner, finding solace on the mat. Expect raw, unfiltered takes as Alan and Mike explore geopolitics, stoicism, and hypotheticals like facing ancient warriors. From blind patriotism to brutal honesty, Alan exposes the thin line between duty and delusion, shaped by a life of combat and reflection. Learn more about your ad choices.

The war for information, influence, and decision making is paramount on today's battlefield. Artificial intelligence is no longer a concept of the future; it's essential for America's national security and military dominance. From SOF Week in Tampa, Florida, Fran Racioppi sat down with retired Green Beret and Co-founder of Accrete AI, Bill Wall, to talk about a fight most Americans never see.Bill is one of the leading voices redefining how we use AI and how our government is deploying it in the protection of America. Bill explains how Accrete's Argus platform is actively being used to identify foreign ownership and control in U.S. defense supply chains, and how more broadly AI is helping analysts detect narrative warfare and influence campaigns before they spread.He shared how dual-use technology is shifting the battlefield, why algorithmic warfare is already here, and how Accrete is giving government agencies the tools to scale human insight without losing control. They also talked about the dangers of siloed innovation, the gap between Silicon Valley and the Pentagon, and what leadership looks like when you're building tech that needs to work at speed and at scale.This episode is about changing how we think about war, technology, and leadership; and what it's going to take to stay ahead in the next fight.HIGHLIGHTS0:00 Welcome to SOF Week3:45 Artificial Intelligence Defined6:53 AI in War Fighting9:07 Machine Learning10:51 Drawing the Line with AI14:48 Defining the Next Battlefield18:27 Combatting False Narratives & Misinformation22:03 Public Private Partnerships24:29 Accrete in the Corporate World29:11 Regulating AI31:05 Why Army32:55 Innovation changing SOF37:20 Transition from SOF51:50 Accrete AI's futureQuotes“Artificial intelligence is just using computers and data to think and reason the same way a human would, but just at a much larger scale and speed.” “Anywhere there's a decisional situation and they're overwhelmed by the amount of information they have to sort through, artificial intelligence should be there.”“Machine learning allows an algorithm or a program to continually absorb new data and learn from that data.” “Artificial intelligence empowers a human.”“We're not engaging in the narrative battle. We don't even know what's being said.”“We don't necessarily need the National Intelligence Community to tell us where our enemies are, they're broadcasting it.”“Is artificial intelligence a general category of something that should have a governmental review on it or not?”“If you want to know where the next salifist, jihadist, preacher who's going to lead an uprising in North Africa is, he's on Youtube.”“In our community, there's this ethos of being prepared for change and being able to take advantage of change as it happens.”“You are what you do.

Ruby Ridge, in the summer of 1992, a remote mountaintop in northern Idaho became the battleground for one of the most explosive standoffs in American history.This week, we take you deep into the story of Ruby Ridge — a case of government overreach, deadly miscommunication, and ideological extremism that changed the way Americans viewed law enforcement forever. It started with a man named Randy Weaver — a former Green Beret wannabe, white separatist, and survivalist who moved his family off-grid to escape what he believed was a collapsing society. But when he refused to become a federal informant, the ATF set a trap: two illegally sawed-off shotguns would snowball into an arrest warrant, a missed court date, and an 11-day siege that left a 14-year-old boy, his mother, and a U.S. Marshal dead.We walk you through the moment-by-moment timeline: the surveillance missions, the fatal gunfight at “the Y,” the controversial FBI sniper rules of engagement, and the second shot that would shatter America's faith in its own government — killing Vicki Weaver as she held her baby in her arms. We explore how the cabin became a fortress of grief and resolve, how negotiators like Bo Gritz broke through the silence, and how the aftermath shook Washington to its core.But Ruby Ridge didn't just end in 1992. It became fuel for the militia movement, a martyr tale for the far-right, and a conspiracy flashpoint that still echoes today. What really happened on that ridge? Who fired first? And why did the federal government quietly settle for millions afterward?Join us as we untangle the real story of Ruby Ridge — a tragedy that lives on in court records, extremist manifestos, and a deeply divided American memory.www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

On today's Joe Untamed, we confront one of the most shocking acts of political violence in recent memory—the shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk during his campus event at Utah Valley University. Kirk was struck in the neck while speaking on stage, sparking chaos as students and staff scrambled for safety. Authorities confirmed the shot came from a building roughly 200 yards away, and although one person was briefly detained, the true suspect remains at large. The FBI and ATF are now leading the investigation, underscoring just how serious this attack is. We speak with Lara Logan, an award-winning investigative journalist who has exposed corruption, terrorism, and propaganda campaigns around the globe, views the shooting of Charlie Kirk as part of a broader pattern where truth-tellers and political dissenters are increasingly targeted. With her deep background in uncovering hidden networks of influence and manipulation, Logan warns that this attack is not random—it reflects the weaponization of narratives and the escalation of political violence designed to silence voices that challenge entrenched power. Her expertise reminds us that, just as in war zones abroad, those who control the flow of information and use violence to intimidate their opponents hold a dangerous advantage unless exposed. Next we connect with E.M. Burlingame, drawing on his experience as a Green Beret, an expert in counterterrorism, and human-domain warfare, agrees that the shooting of Charlie Kirk is not an isolated act but a dangerous symptom of America's growing fragmentation. He sees it as a textbook example of how political violence mirrors insurgent tactics—engineered to fracture trust, capture attention, and distort narratives. In his view, the incident underscores the urgent need for a disciplined, multi-layered response, much like irregular warfare demands: vigilant intelligence, stronger community resilience, and strategic clarity to prevent ideology from destabilizing the nation further.

Wendy Adelson's Ex Reveals Chilling Confession About Charlie's Murder Plot In this episode of Hidden Killers Live, Tony Brueski, Robin Dreeke, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels dig deep into one of the most revealing moments in the Dan Markel murder investigation: the police interrogation of Wendy Adelson's ex-boyfriend, Dr. Jeffrey Lacoste. Recorded in the aftermath of early arrests tied to the hit on FSU law professor Dan Markel, the interrogation showcases how detectives worked to separate suspicion from truth. At first, Lacoste himself was under the microscope. But what unfolded quickly redirected focus onto the Adelson family—Wendy, Charlie, and their controlling matriarch, Donna. Lacoste recalled haunting conversations with Wendy, including one where she confided that Charlie Adelson had “legitimately explored” hiring someone to kill Markel. Not a joke, not an offhand remark, but a chillingly serious disclosure. His statement matched courtroom testimony years later, but in this raw police interview, the gravity hits even harder. Our panel breaks down credibility cues, body language, and tempo of disclosure, explaining why Lacoste read as a highly reliable source—even while acknowledging his lingering attachment to Wendy, which slightly complicated his objectivity. We also explore his sharp memory for details, dates, and conversations, and why the one moment he couldn't precisely recall raises questions worth unpacking. The interrogation also highlights Charlie Adelson's bizarre behavior—bragging about his connections to Green Berets and surrounding himself with militant types, despite being a wealthy South Florida dentist. Was this insecurity? Narcissism? A desperate attempt to project toughness after years under his mother's thumb? With convictions already secured against Charlie Adelson, Sigfredo Garcia, and Katherine Magbanua, attention now turns to Wendy and Donna. The Lacoste interrogation remains a critical piece of the puzzle in exposing the family's role in this murder-for-hire plot. Join us as we dissect the interrogation line by line, revealing the psychology, the family dynamics, and the chilling implications for everyone tied to Dan Markel's death.

Echo Chamber of Control: Robin Dreeke Breaks Down the Adelson Family Psychology In this explosive deep dive, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, former head of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, joins Hidden Killers Live to unravel the tangled psychology of the Adelson family. At the center of this discussion: Donna Adelson's obsessive control, Charlie Adelson's dangerous insecurities, and Wendy Adelson's revealing slip-ups that pointed investigators toward a murder-for-hire plot. The episode begins with comparisons between Jackie Fulford, Donna's so-called “doppelgänger attorney,” and the broader Adelson pattern of surrounding themselves with mirrors of their own self-image. Dreeke describes this as the classic “echo chamber” — a family environment where validation replaces reality, breeding narcissism, paranoia, and control. From there, the conversation turns to the police interrogation of Dr. Jeffrey Lacoste, Wendy Adelson's ex-boyfriend. His testimony is not only haunting but also deeply telling. Lacoste recalls Wendy confiding that her brother Charlie had “looked into options” for getting rid of Dan Markel. He describes Charlie openly talking about money, hitmen, and how much it would cost — chilling disclosures that made Charlie the first suspect to enter his mind when news of Dan's murder broke. Robin Dreeke dissects Lacoste's credibility, noting his remarkable memory for dates, his consistent disclosure tempo, and his vulnerability as a man still under Wendy's spell. Dreeke explains how narcissistic family systems thrive on manipulation, impulsivity, and a desperate need for external validation — traits seen across Donna, Wendy, and Charlie. The discussion also explores Charlie Adelson's bizarre associations with Green Berets, criminal circles, and the Latin Kings, questioning why a wealthy dentist would gravitate toward such company. Dreeke suggests this was Charlie's way of masking insecurity, rebelling against his mother's dominance, and fabricating an image of power. This is not just a story of one murder — it's a case study in how toxic family dynamics, unchecked narcissism, and impulsive decisions can escalate into tragedy.

Dreeke describes this as the classic “echo chamber” — a family environment where validation replaces reality, breeding narcissism, paranoia, and control. From there, the conversation turns to the police interrogation of Dr. Jeffrey Lacoste, Wendy Adelson's ex-boyfriend. His testimony is not only haunting but also deeply telling. Lacoste recalls Wendy confiding that her brother Charlie had “looked into options” for getting rid of Dan Markel. He describes Charlie openly talking about money, hitmen, and how much it would cost — chilling disclosures that made Charlie the first suspect to enter his mind when news of Dan's murder broke. Robin Dreeke dissects Lacoste's credibility, noting his remarkable memory for dates, his consistent disclosure tempo, and his vulnerability as a man still under Wendy's spell. Dreeke explains how narcissistic family systems thrive on manipulation, impulsivity, and a desperate need for external validation — traits seen across Donna, Wendy, and Charlie. The discussion also explores Charlie Adelson's bizarre associations with Green Berets, criminal circles, and the Latin Kings, questioning why a wealthy dentist would gravitate toward such company. Dreeke suggests this was Charlie's way of masking insecurity, rebelling against his mother's dominance, and fabricating an image of power. This is not just a story of one murder — it's a case study in how toxic family dynamics, unchecked narcissism, and impulsive decisions can escalate into tragedy.

In Episode 254, Part 3 of the Mike Drop podcast, host Mike Ritland continues his conversation with former Green Beret Mark Gianconia, delving into the complex motivations behind the Iraq War and Mark's post-combat transition. The episode opens with a discussion on the murky intelligence surrounding weapons of mass destruction and the decision to invade Iraq, exploring whether it was a justified response to perceived threats or influenced by ulterior motives. Mark reflects on the chaotic post-invasion landscape, including his role in devastating airstrikes against the Iraqi military, navigating minefields, and managing volatile tribal factions in Tuz. He shares the emotional toll of combat, including feelings of guilt and fear, which led to his decision to leave special operations. Mark's career pivots dramatically as he becomes an instructor for the 18 Fox intelligence course, mastering geospatial intelligence and coding, which propels him into a tech career. He also discusses his book, One Green Beret, a cathartic effort to process his experiences, and his current role in geospatial technology, emphasizing AI as a tool rather than a threat.

In this episode, we welcome United States Army Colonel Paris Davis to the show. He is a retired and highly decorated veteran of the US Army Special Forces (aka the Green Berets). He served in Korea and then saw combat during the Vietnam war. He was first nominated for the Congressional Medal of Honor in 1965 after a battle in Binh Dinh Provence, Vietnam, but he was not awarded the Medal until March 3rd, 2023. He is the author of the new book “Every Weapon I Had: A Vietnam Vet's Long Road to the Medal of Honor.” In this interview, we discuss how the execution of his older brother changed the trajectory of his life, why he joined the United States Army, the creation of and how he ended up in Special Forces, the difference between his first and second deployments to Vietnam, his actions during battle which led to him receiving the Medal of Honor, why he defied a commanding officer's orders to leave the battlefield, his mindset after he was first wounded in battle, and much more.

Dive into this epic conversation on the Mike Drop Podcast with Green Beret legend Mark Giaconia. A 20-year Army veteran who traded infantry boots for Special Forces grit, Mark opens up about his raw reaction to 9/11—burning with jealousy as Fifth Group charged into Afghanistan, only to carve his own pinnacle in Iraq's brutal ops. But before the GWOT glory, he takes us back to the forgotten chaos of Bosnia in the late '90s, where peacekeeping turned into high-stakes intel gathering: embedding in remote villages, renting houses amid fresh war scars, and dodging tense standoffs with Serbian cops who grabbed their weapons at the sight of an American. From concealed pistols and civilian rides to wild encounters—like spotting a Beirut bombing fugitive in a roadside eatery or monitoring Russian convoys on the brink of World War III—Mark's stories pulse with the raw edge of undercover life in a powder keg. We geek out on metal shredding (check Patreon for the deep dive), philosophy from Socrates to Nietzsche, and his time-travel wish to homestead in colonial Connecticut. Whether it's surviving Ranger School's 200+ day grind, losing 40 pounds in the suck, or bonding with locals over slivovitz amid genocide echoes, this episode hooks you with unfiltered warrior wisdom, historical twists, and the unexamined life's brutal truths. Don't miss Mark's insights on human nature, founding principles, and why the Balkans' hospitality hides a world of shadows—perfect fuel for any Mike Drop fan craving real talk from the front lines.
